Made in Italy, re-engineered
in the UK and launched in
Australia, the Dieci Pegasus
50-19 Railmaster Telehandler is
a unique machine.
Originally a versatile and
powerful telehandler, some
innovative thinking and high
level engineering and design
enhancements has rebirthed it
as a rail maintenance machine.
According to John Holland
Rail Engineering Manager
AdamVeerstage: “The Pegasus
Railmaster is a fully integrated
solution for tunnelling and rail,
making it unique to Australia.”
“The biggest advantage of the
Dieci Railmaster is it doesn’t
need an outrigger to work - it
can move along the rails at
about 4km/h with a man inside
the basket,”Adam said.
The Dieci Railmaster was
developed in a collaborative
engineering project between
Dieci Italy, Dieci Australia and
Rex Quote in the UK.
It can tow 20 tonnes, carry
600kg in the basket (more than
twice that of its nearest rival),
lift up 5 tonnes when used as
Dieci’s Pegasus Railmaster
Telehandler is one of a kind
a telehandler, has 18.7m lift height
and 360 degree rotation capabilities
and has the potential to be run on
rubber wheels and hi-rail.
The Pegasus’ array of attachments
includes a hydraulic winch, fork
attachments to carry rail sleepers
and lifting slings for pipes.
According to Dieci Director Paul
Jenkins: “The Dieci Railmaster
is also the first machine to fully
integrate Hi Rail Load charts into
the Load Management System -
something that has never been
done before in Australia.”
